The Freeze Force

Polar Plunge Melbourne 2025

We’ll be freezin’ for a reason

Law Enforcement Torch Run Victoria (LETR) is hosting its second Melbourne Polar Plunge on Saturday, 26 July to raise funds for athletes of Special Olympics Australia and Special Olympics VIC | Special Olympics Australia.

Last year, Deputy Commissioner Wendy Steendam joined 146 brave plungers and 31 teams at the foreshore of South Melbourne for the icy challenge. The Priority and Safer Communities Division team raised $1,790, contributing to the Victorian total of $64,410. 

We are excited to be back this year to do it all again!
